NEXT' ,.MONDAY'
MAPLE SYRUP MAKERS
TO. MEET AT ELMIRA
The Lake Huron District of the
Dept. of Lands and Forests' is
sponsoring a. Maple Syrup Makers
Meeting to be held at the Elmira
Community Memorial Arena, El-
mira, ;Ontario, on Monday, Febru-
ary 27th, 1961. from 1.30 to 4,00 p,m.
This meeting is planned •to discuss
modern Methods of production,
packing and inarketireg in an effort
to make the maple bushes more
profitable to their owners. All are
welcome, ,Admission is free,
Maple syrup is an important pro-
duct of Ontario. In 1958, the last
year for which the Dominion Bur-
eau of Statistics has published
figures, Ontario produced 318,00t1
gallons of syrup worth $1,529,000
as well as 32,000 lbs. of maple
sugar valued at $18,000. In the
same year, the Ontario production
of honey, a competitor, was 5,310,000
lbs. valued at about 17 cents per
lb. to the producer, or about
$900,000 .considerably less than
maple syrup.
The maple syrup producers in
general have not been kept inform-
ed of new .developments, and the
meeting is intended to bring out
some helpful hints.
Pew prochteers know that bac-
teria are the, main factor in low-
ering both the yield and the grade
of maple syrup. Experiments in
the U.S.A. and elsewhere have
shown that by the; use of •anti-
biotics they can get far better
yields. - -
Sap is being carried in tubes
now, rather than in heavy pails, to
eliminate mucll.'of the back break-
ing work; and modern methods of
packing syrup in small cans
accords better with the housewife's
weekly purchasing methods than
the one gallon cans. More care-
ful handling results in syrup re-
taining its fresh flavour, too.

and operations were suspended at
least until after the war. I should
like to know what finally happened
to this unusual family —. Elspeth,
Tilly and Bobin—perhaps a later
book will reveal that.
Many readers will find this book
interesting because the natives who
worked for the 'Huxley family were
from the Kikuyu group, about
whom we have heard so much,
with less pleasant connotations. I
am reasonably certain that children
are not capable of ,realizing the full
significance of all they see and ex-
perience when children. "Poetry,"
it is said "is emotion recollected in
tranquillity." Childhood happenings
and observations often fall into an
understandable pattern only in
maturity. Comprehension grows
with recollection and apparently
small details of colour, scent and
taste will recur many years later
if just the right chord is struck.
The delight of recognition is an
experience to be sought and enjoy-
ed. To be able to communicate
these living sensations is a skill
this writer possesses,
The heat, languor and lushness of !
living "where the sun's rays are
vertical" almost smothers one as
one reads. Primitive living condi-
tions were pointed up by ridiculous
contrasts Elsneth's family ate
from damask tablecloths in a grass
hut, Fine needlework, painting and
drawing were dune when they
weren't fighting voracious ant
hordes or tracking down leopards.
Their neighbours were an interest-
ing melange of people. Mrs. Nimmo
a, doughty Scot nurse, married to
an elephant poacher, who was off
poaching more often than at home.
Mr. Roos, a Boer farmer lived al-
most recluse unless asked for as-
sistance in trailing a common
enemy — in which case his know-
ledge of wild animal habits was un-
canny, and their . salvation. Here-
ward, 'a proper ex-cavalry officer,
was their nearest neighbour and his
beautiful], talented and unconven-
tional wife Lettice, provided a
touch of romance that the chillet
sensed but did not fully grasp.
This book is alive, You can feel
the luxuriant poWer of wild growth
-.checked• and controlled tempor-
arily by man but inexorably creep-
ing badk once the vigilance is re-
laxed. The pages are peopled with
animals, wild and tame. Elspeth's
closest friends and companions
were her pets—a pair of chame-
leons, a duiker (a type of tiny
deer) and a Somali pony. There
were safaris, guinea fowl hunts,
snake killings and a long chain re-
action from a buffalo hunt added
a touch of poignancy of life among
the flame trees of Thilca. Piquancy
and peace are here for the reading.

OPENED IN JANUARY
The Harbour Light centre, which
was recently opened at the corner
of Jarvis and Shuter Streets, in
Toronto, le a far cry from the
former building on Queen Street,
hut. the same system that proved
so successful at the old site will
be adhered to.
Six years ago a store on Queen
:Street was renovated ,for use as a
Harbour Light centre, Brigadier
and Mrs. J. Monk, of the Salvation
Army, were appointed to take
charge. Degradation, tragedy and
heartbreak have been represented
by the men who have passed
through the clinic, but many of
these have been turned to victory
end rehabilitation,
A large percentage of the 3,000
men, and a few women, who en,
tered the Harbour .Light during
those six years, seeking spiritual
help for an alcoholic problem, have
kept their vows by faith in Christ.
With the erection of the new
Harbour Light centre, the Army
has now accommodation to help a
larger number to become rehabili-
tated.
The auditorium has seating ca-
pacity for 200. There are sleeping
rooms for 70 in-patients and a
lunch room to feed almost any
number,
A. man is admitted as a guest
if he is determined to conquer the
craving for liquor. He is given a
bed and invited to attend a "clinic"
where Bible study and prayer help
him to experience faith in the
transforming power of Christ, The
Army believes psychiatry will help
some men and appreciates the
voluntary service of a psychiatrist
who interviews the men, but the
main cure is through Divine
power, It has been proved in hun-
